The most reckless man in the Ming Dynasty.

Chapter 325 He deserves it
Nanchang, Prince Ning’s Palace.

Li Dongyang was a little uneasy, so he asked Prince Ning to review the situation.

The two of them worked out the entire plan in detail and confirmed that there would be no problems.

"Can Li Shishi and Wang Lun be trusted?"

“Even if it’s not credible, they have no choice.”

Li Dongyang coughed violently a few times, then slowly explained: "They are in the same situation as you and me, facing the inevitable death of their families and the extermination of their homes, so the two of them had to act according to the plan!"

Li Shishi and Wang Lun had long become Zhu Chenhao's cronies, secretly giving Zhu Chenhao advice or providing him with financial support, so they deserved to die more than Li Dongyang. Once the emperor started to settle accounts, these two would naturally be executed along with their entire clans!
"Can the poison of the poison arrow tree really kill the Marquis of Zhongshan?"

Prince Ning once again asked a key question.

After hearing this, Li Dongyang was silent for a while, and only his occasional coughing could be heard.

This question is a bit ridiculous.

Because it is a deadly poison that kills instantly upon contact with blood!

Even though Zhongshan Hou Tang Hao was born with supernatural powers, it's impossible that he is not afraid of poison, right?

In order to find this deadly poison that kills instantly, Prince Ning's Mansion spent a lot of effort, and only then completed the last piece of the puzzle in the plan.

"Zhongshan Hou Tang Hao is so brave that he can kill a tiger, and he is still in his prime!"

"Ordinary assassins are no match for him. They won't even know how they died after fighting him!"

"In addition, this Marquis Zhongshan is highly respected and trusted by His Majesty the Emperor. He holds the military power of the capital and no one can shake him!"

"If even this poison arrow tree can't kill him, then I really don't know what other methods there are to get rid of this man!"

Prince Ning also smiled bitterly when he heard this.

The individual is extremely brave.

With the Beijing Army’s soldiers in hand!

Deeply favored by the emperor!

When these three are combined, who can still kill him, Tang Hao?
The only way to have a chance is through assassination or poisoning.

But what if the poison arrow tree can't kill him?

Then I'm afraid there is really no one in this world who can get rid of this Marquis of Zhongshan!
"As long as he is hit by an arrow, he will definitely die!"

"Once Tang Hao dies, Lei Xiong will secretly instigate, and the Beijing Army soldiers will definitely mutiny!"

“The entire capital will be in chaos. Even if the Beijing army kills Zhu Chenhao by force, those trusted generals who follow Tang Hao will be suppressed by the emperor!”

"The emperor has no way to solve this situation. He is still a young emperor and does not have the means to rule. Especially since those generals of the Beijing Army dared to mutiny and threaten his safety, they will definitely be purged."

A hint of ruthlessness flashed in Li Dongyang's eyes.

He hated Tang Hao to the core!

If it weren't for this damn reckless man, Li Dongyang would still be a famous figure in the world!

If it weren't for this damn reckless man, he, Li Dongyang, would still be the Prime Minister in charge of the cabinet!
If it weren't for this damned reckless man, Li Dongyang would not have been ostracized by the literati and scolded as a eunuch party by scholars and students all over the world!

He lost his official position, his power, and even his reputation, all because of that damned reckless man, that damned beast, Tang Hao!
Therefore, Li Dongyang wanted Tang Hao to die, and also wanted to destroy everything that this beast had worked so hard to build!
Do you want military generals and nobles to rise?
I just want to make you unhappy!

I just want to get rid of those Beijing army generals who follow you!

As long as this group of young and promising Beijing army generals are killed or dismissed, how can the military generals and nobles rise up?
By then, the rebuilt five prefectures will be just a joke, and all the results of Tang Hao's hard work over the years will become a joke!
The young emperor Zhu Houzhao lost the support of military generals and nobles, and had to purge the royal family forces in the court. How could he, Zhu Houzhao, get rid of the control of civil officials and gentry?
Hahahaha... whenever he thought of this, Li Dongyang felt that his sick and disabled body felt a lot lighter.

However, at this moment, there were sounds of scolding and beating coming from outside the house, which made the two men's faces change.

Prince Ning rushed out of the door in a hurry, took just one look, then hurriedly ran back and closed the door tightly.

"gentlemen!"

"How could this be?"

"The Jinyi Tiqi and the Four Guards are here!"

Hearing this, Li Dongyang was struck by lightning. After being stunned for a long while, he actually spat out a mouthful of blood.

"This is impossible!"

"How could this be? How could this be?"

"Even the poison arrow tree can't kill that damned beast?"

Li Dongyang muttered to himself, his face full of despair.

Of course he knew that only Zhongshan Hou Tang Hao could suppress those Beijing army generals, and only Zhongshan Hou Tang Hao had the ability to reverse the situation in an instant!
In other words, Zhongshan Hou Tang Hao was not dead at all!
The main purpose of his painstaking planning was to kill the damned Marquis Zhongshan, but in the end the other party did not die!

How can this be?

"impossible!"

"How come he didn't die when he saw blood?"

Li Dongyang was still muttering to himself, with an expression that seemed to be both crying and laughing.

But the next moment, the sound of a door being broken was heard, and Prince Ning was knocked to the ground, covered in dirt.

A large number of imperial guards rushed in, drew their swords and subdued the two men.

Leng Hantie walked in expressionlessly, and after confirming that the two main culprits were here, he finally put his heart at ease.

"Li Dongyang!"

"Prince Ning!"

"You guys are really good at this!"

"Planning rebellion, assassinating important officials in the court, disrupting the situation in the capital, and attempting to overthrow the Ming Dynasty!" The two men's faces turned paler with each charge they mentioned.

Especially the Prince of Ning, he just wanted to survive and didn't want to be implicated because of his father Zhu Chenhao's rebellion.

However, after following Li Dongyang's arrangement, not only did he harm his father Zhu Chenhao in advance, but he himself could not escape the death penalty and even had to bear more charges!
For a moment, Prince Ning was extremely panicked.

"No!"

"not like this!"

"I want to report Zhu Chenhao for treason!"

"The secret letter of denunciation I wrote personally is already on its way to Beijing..."

Prince Ning placed all his last hopes on the secret letter that exposed his father.

Unfortunately, his hopes were doomed to be dashed.

"Stop yelling."

"Li Shishi and Wang Lun have both confessed."

Leng Hantie sneered and said, "Prince Ning, do you think the Emperor will believe you or the two witnesses?"

Upon hearing this, Prince Ning fell into complete despair.

Even Li Shishi and Wang Lun were captured by them, what is there to argue about?
Who could have thought that their painstaking planning of all this would ultimately hasten the downfall of Prince Ning's Mansion!

Li Dongyang was pinned to the ground, still muttering to himself as if he was crazy.

Leng Hantie looked at this once world-famous figure and couldn't help but sigh.

Why should it be so?
If you, Li Dongyang, had been more sensible and resigned on your own initiative, the Emperor would have naturally spared your life.

But you just don't know what's good for you. Even when Liu Daxia has been expelled from the court, you still want to stay in the cabinet and even collude with Liu Jin to steal the power of the court, forcing Zhongshan Hou to beat the drum to report to the emperor. In this case, what way do you have to survive?

This final counterattack before death was truly unexpected and almost succeeded.

However, God bless the Ming Dynasty, and Marquis Zhongshan survived. So the one who died can only be you, Li Dongyang!
Recalling the warning given by his boss Zuo Yidao before leaving Beijing, Leng Hantie couldn't help but perk up.

This time, this old fox must be killed completely!

We must not allow him any chance to survive.

After all, Li Dongyang is a famous scholar in the world, and his students and old friends are spread throughout the court and the country. Even if he is the mastermind of this case, the problem is that once he returns to Beijing, no one can control what those civil officials and gentry will do.

Therefore, Leng Hantie looked at the Prince of Ning and said with a smile: "You are also a beast. In order to survive, you did not hesitate to join forces with outsiders to frame your own father!"

"If Zhu Chenhao knew that you were the mastermind behind this, I wonder if he would be so angry that he would die on the spot!"

"Hey, once this scandal of father and son killing each other gets out, your Ning clan will be completely ruined. It would be unreasonable for His Majesty to not abolish you all!"

Hearing this, Prince Ning trembled, and then explained with a pale face: "No, it's not me!"

"If it's not you? Then who is it?" Leng Hantie chuckled, "If you want to live, it's not impossible, but the prerequisite is that someone else must take all the blame for you!"

"And His Majesty the Emperor does not want to confirm the accusation that you and your son killed each other, because doing so would only bring shame to the Zhu family and the royal family!"

The reasons are very sufficient.

Prince Ning still has a chance to survive!
So he immediately understood the hidden meaning of Leng Hantie's words and immediately turned his target towards Li Dongyang.

"Correct!"

"It's Li Dongyang!"

"It was Li Dongyang who instigated me to do this!"

"He tricked me into believing that His Majesty had already seen through Zhu Chenhao's treasonous behavior, and that the entire Ning Wang Mansion would be executed soon. That's why I did this, all because of Li Dongyang, all because of him!"

The goal was achieved, so Leng Hantie stopped talking.

"Sign and seal!"

As long as Prince Ning signs and seals the case, the case will be settled as an ironclad case. No matter how the gentry and gentry react after returning to Beijing, Li Dongyang will definitely have his property confiscated and his family exterminated. There is no room for negotiation!
Prince Ning looked at the confession in front of him, then looked at Li Dongyang timidly. In the end, he couldn't resist the desire to live, so he signed his name and then bit his finger to seal it.

Leng Hantie carefully put away the confession, then walked up to Li Dongyang, squatted down and looked at him for a while, then suddenly reached out and slapped him hard.

The slap was so powerful that blood oozed from the corner of Li Dongyang's mouth and his cheeks soon became red and swollen.

The sudden change shocked everyone present.

After all, this is Li Dongyang!
Leng Hantie withdrew his hand expressionlessly.

"This slap was given to you by Lord Tang."

"Next, here are Lord Tang's original words. Please listen carefully."

Leng Hantie cleared his throat and imitated Tang Hao's tone of voice.

"This slap represents Lei Xiong's life!"

"As for the grudge between you and me, we will slowly settle it after your prison car arrives in Beijing!"

"Of course, you can also commit suicide, in which case I will have to skin your son Li Zhaofan alive!"

Li Zhaofan!
Hearing the name, Li Dongyang looked up suddenly and asked in disbelief.

"Zhao Fan is still alive?"

"Yes, he has been imprisoned in the imperial prison." Leng Hantie nodded.

After learning this secret, Li Dongyang seemed to be crying and laughing, and finally let out a shrill roar.

“Tang Hao! Tang Hao! You beast have been planning to kill me for a long time!”
